Choirs under his direction have performed at state, regional and National ACDA conferences in 2007, 2012, 2014 & 2017. Internationally renowned composer Morten Lauridsen praised Nelson and the Wartburg Choir’s performance of “O Magnum Mysterium” stating: “It was in the top echelon of any performance of that piece by any choir that I have ever heard.” The Wartburg Ritterchor (men’s choir) has been invited to perform at a President’s Day concert at Carnegie Hall in New York City in February 2017. Nelson will also conduct the Wartburg Choir on a 30 day international tour to Germany, Scotland and Ireland in May 2017.
